I made a Python script to open the csv file reading it line by line. For each line, it would store the name and address in separate variables. It would then execute the query above, but it was taking too long to insert the data into the columns.

Is there anyway I could do this in MySQL, if so, what is the fastest way?

Thanks.

Answer:

You can import the CSV file into a separate table using mysql LOAD DATA INFILE and then update the entries table using JOIN statement on the basis of similar column name.
